If there's one thing we've learned about business, it's that it's constantly evolving! No matter what industry you work in, there's always something new you can learn or a new way to look at something. In fact, it's one of our favorite parts about owning a business! We love learning about new technology and tools, marketing techniques, business strategies, and learning from others' experiences with all of the above. Plus, knowing business is always changing is a nice little reminder that no one knows it all. No matter how long (or how short) someone has been in business.

That being said, while we admittedly don't know everything, we love to educate ourselves as much as possible! Biz blogs, books, magazines, webinars, and workshops.. you name it, we're after it! Adding to that list, we've been totally obsessed with listening to podcasts lately. I've been in and out of the airport the last few months and I just cannot get enough and wanted to share some of my favs! Big shout-out to our Facebook Group community for some of these amazing recs to! (You can find some of our favorite groups here)

Being Boss: Being Boss is one of the first podcasts I started listening to. The founders Emily and Kathleen are seriously awesome and cover a variety of business topics and they also have a super awesome Facebook Group!

The School of Greatness Lewis Howes: I attended a panel in the city that Lewis spoke at and his story and perception of life really interested me. He covers a wide range of topics on his podcast and I really love the messages from the episodes.

The Biz Chix Podcast: Biz Chix is a great podcast featuring women entrepreneurs highlighting different biz stories with actionable advice to put forth in your business!

Creative Empire Podcast: I love this podcast because it's really targeted for entrepreneurs and small businesses within the creative space.

Profit. Power. Pursuit.: This podcast is so great because it really provides insight into a variety of business topics and all types of businesses.

Heart, Soul & Hustle: Zach offers some really great advice, along with his guests, on making the most of your biz with different techniques.

All Up in Your Lady Business: This podcast is dedicated to highlighting women in business at all stages and coming together to share the lessons each have learned.

Visibility Vixen: I SO love the people Michelle interviews on her podcast. I love hearing the back stories and about other businesses so much.

More than anything I love that while each podcast covers biz topics, they all bring a unique and fun approach to the table. So pop in your earbuds and give these a listen! I hope you like them as much as I do!

While we were working on the Personalized Procedures website, Jordan Gill asked if we could also create a new logo for her podcast, Systems Saved Me. We were already integrating the podcast into her website and creating a fun episodes graphic template for Jordan to utilize so we were excited to design a new logo for the podcast as well!

The Project:

The Design:

Utilize her current colors and branding

Incorporate a neon sign vibe

Create a podcast cover image

Jordan provided some really awesome inspiration for the vibe she was looking for so from there we were off to the races and designed 3 concepts! Since we loveee to give you some behind-the-scenes we're taking you start to finish with this logo! Here's a look at the 3 initial concepts we presented:

After seeing our initial concepts, Jordan was in love with concept 1 -- the neon sign concept (and so were we!) so it was off to revisions to make some tweaks. This time we played with the intensity of the neon lighting as well as the levels on the concrete background.

So which one did Jordan pick?! The one right below! We love her choice and think the concrete background is the perfect accent to help the podcast cover image pop in iTunes! After the logo was finalized we also created an episode graphic that will highlight who is featured on each podcast on the website.

We love how the Systems Saved Me logo and graphic turned out (I mean, hello… NEON!) and we’re so excited to keep up with the podcast!
